Property Description

Once in a lifetime opportunity to own a picture perfect Greek Revival and Italianate single circa 1860 that has been meticulously and tastefully updated inside and out with contemporary paint colors and finishes by its landscape designer and graphic designer owners. The gardens that surround the home were professionally designed and planted over the last 30+ years and feature multiple specimen trees, shrubs and perennials for year round color and interest and are accented with pathway and up lighting and also a koi pond. There is a 530 square foot 2 tiered mahogany deck that overlooks the magnificently landscaped grounds. This beautiful 3 bedroom 3 full and one half bath home features a gorgeous two story addition that includes a spacious family room, a sunny master bedroom suite with private bath, generous closet space, office area that could also be a nursery or dressing room, a new mudroom with bench seating and storage plus a first floor powder room and laundry area. The large, light filled family room with cathedral ceiling provides views from multiple windows and access to the stunning deck and gardens via French doors. The original part of home includes a front vestibule, center hall with desk alcove, a charming dining room with original doors, moldings, knobs and hinges, a lovely living room with wood burning fireplace and French doors to the beautiful sunroom that could also be used as a playroom or office.

Two additional upstairs bedrooms each have their own baths and large closets. The updated mechanicals include 200 amp electric service and two high efficiency furnace and air conditioning systems that service the old and new sections of the home and the property also includes a large storage shed and off street parking for one car.Convenient to the shops and restaurants of Chestnut Hill, the Saturday Chestnut Hill Farmer's Market and an easy commute to Center City Philadelphia via SEPTA's commuter train lines, this home has all it all!
